nni: Intrinsic Dimensionality Estimation from Near-Neighbor Information.

Description

nni estimates intrinsic dimension of given dataset based on the nearest-neighbor information.

Usage

nni(x, k1 = 2, k2 = 30, DM = FALSE, eps = 0.01, p = NULL)

Value

Estimated global intrinsic dimension.

Arguments

x

data matrix or distance matrix given by as.matrix(dist(x)).

k1

first k-NN parameter.

k2

second k-NN parameter.

DM

whether 'x' is distance matrix or not. logical.

eps

accuracy parameter.

p

ambient dimension used for automatically define 'k1' and 'k2'.

Details

First order expansion of the probability mass function is considered, then the distribution of the nearest-neighbor points from the inspection point is modeled by the Poisson distribution. The average of the nearest-distance is expressed by intrinsic dimension to be estimated.
